Chianti Classico DOCG 6 x 75 cl.

VARIETY: Sangiovese 90%, Canaiolo 5%, Cabernet Sauvignon 5%.

COLOR: Red.

PRODUCTION AREA: Greve in Chianti, Tuscany.

VINEYARDS: The Greve is the heart of Chianti, the hilly region of central Tuscany. The vineyards are on the seep slopes so the wines from the sandy soils are scented and elegant, their perfumes developed by the cool nights and long growing season at such an altitude.

VINIFICATION: Vinification takes place after delicate crushing of the grapes. The must macerates on the skins for 1-2 weeks in order to favour the extraction of colour and other polyphenolic substances. 9 Months of aging in small and big barrels.

SENSORY FEATURES : Deep, ruby-red in color, this Chianti Classico offers aromas of ripe cherries and red plums, with subtle notes of toasted vanilla beans and purple flowers . On the palate, the wine displays a superbly structured character with bright acidity and a pleasantly savoury finish.

BEST SERVED WITH: A perfect choice for rich, creamy pasta dishes, stuffed roasted game hens or barbecued chorizo or other sausages.

WINEMAKER: Elisabetta Matteini.

SERVING TEMPERATURE: 18°C.
